Rare Set of Two Triedro Pendants by Joe Colombo for Stilnovo

Cesare ‘Joe’ Colombo (1930 – 1971) is considered to be one of Italy’s most iconic designers. For his own apartment Colombo designed the units Roto-living and Cabriolet-Bed (both 1969), followed by Total Furnishing Unit, which was presented at the exhibition ‘Italy: The Domestic Landscape at the Museum of Modern Art’, New York in 1972. It presented a complete “living-machine,” comprising kitchen, wardrobe, bathroom, and sleeping accommodation, on only 28 square meters.
For Stilnovo he designed the Triedro Lamps in 1972. Colombo was inspired by the lamps photographers used in their studios. Both pendants have a sticker marked ‘Stilnovo’.
